Thanks Michael,

"extruding with no caps, then using PlanarSrf to build a single cap, transform it by moving it in the extrude direction, then joining the cap with the extrusion."

I am familiar with this approach, although the method of extruding with caps on, then selecting & deleting the base face is a generally less awkward.

It is surprising to me that this feature request is not more common, even if the work around is pretty straightforward.

Thanks again,
James
